Abstrakt		The Halsted radical mastectomy, once considered the ideal cancer operation, no longer has a place in the routine management of patients with breast cancer. Breast conservation in form of segmental mastectomy, axillary node dissection, and radiation is popular nowadays. Axillary lymphadenectomy, shown to be of questionable terapeutic value in breast cancer, is certainly of prognostic significance. Studies are ongoing to establish the validity of the less-invasive sentinel node biopsy. Perhaps the most significant change in today's approach to breast cancer is the reliance on well-controlled prospective studies to evaluate outcome and determine the apropriate surgical procedure.
